Too much 'spice'?
ABC News reports that the seizures
Demi Moore experienced before her friends called 9-1-1 may have been due to the side effect of smoking the synthetic drug "spice."
Moore's symptoms were all very common adverse reactions to "spice" (a/k/a "incense"), according to Louisiana's Poison Control Center director, Mark Ryan.
Ryan said that what makes the synthetic drugs particularly risky (other than the fact that they're unregulated synthetic drugs) is that there's "no quality control" in their production process.
"When someone buys these products, they don't know exactly what ingredient they may be getting and they don't know the amount of the substance that's in there," Ryan said. "So somebody may get one batch and get 5 mg; someone may buy the product around the corner and get 2,000 mg."
